My wife's family came to visit us from out of state. On Saturday we all visited the North Carolina Maritime Museum at Southport.
As you can see the boat is really starting to take shape now that the hull is painted.
And for those who seem perplexed because these are not the colours of the "Drumbeat of Devon", I am actually making it an "RCMP" police boat painted similar to the one you see in the inset on the left. This kit, made by Model Slipway, was the best suited for this purpose.
This is a quarter scale version of a Selway Fisher Northumbrian Coble. I'm building a model first for practice, I plan on building the 14' version later in the year. Here is the link to Selway Fisher: www.selway-fisher.com/OtherDB.htm
This page contains the written instructions that go along with the assembly diagram.
I found it interesting you could outfit the boat with a radio controller, even though one wasn't included. This had to be preferable to setting your brand-new model in the water and just letting it go. What if it stranded itself in the middle of your pond or lake?
